I know this may sound stupid but i'm going to ask it anyway.
I'm curious to find out if there is a way to either cut Half X lenses to look like flak jacket xlj lenses? Or cut Flak jacket xlj lenses for the Half X. I know that is pretty vague. What I am looking to accomplish is to give my Half X a bit sportier of a look and the bottom of the xlj lens shape just might do that. I think it could make the Half X look less meh..

I would try this myself but I have never cut lenses before

To put it out there before someone comes back and says "just get a flak jacket xlj" .. I don't want one
 
I tried the XLJ cut today and didn't like that style on a squarish half-x lens. I ended up taking out so much material to make a rectangular shape that I gave up on XLJ and ended up making an aggressive half-x style instead.

Fire is custom cut; VR28BI is OEM Half-X

I am assuming you want something like this, except with a Half X fitment. I would guess it can be done.
